Phuket Bubble Watch — Top 10 Overpriced Condos

· RealData analysis

Phuket's condo market is shaped by foreign demand: Russian buyers post-2022, Chinese capital, Western retirees, and Bangkok investors looking for vacation-rental yield. Marketing decks lean heavily on 'beachfront premium' and 'guaranteed yield' — without putting a number on either.

We crawled all 63 Phuket condo buildings on hipflat, computed each building's median price-per-sqm, then divided by its sub-area (tambon) median to produce a Bubble Index. 100 = at-market. 200 = double the local average. 400 = four times.

Below: the 10 highest-Bubble-Index buildings in Phuket. These aren't necessarily bad buildings — luxury brands, beach proximity, or amenities can justify a real premium. The point is: before you pay the 'investment' pitch, know the number.
